Gymnopédie No. 3 (string trio)

Title: Gymnopédie No. 3

Composer: Erik Satie, arr. David Gable

Instrumentation: Violin; Violin 2 or Viola; Cello

Note: Satie wrote three short pieces he called “gymnopédies”, borrowing the title from an Ancient Greek dance. All are lightly textured, with mesmerizing rhythms and lyric melodies perfectly suited for strings.
